Review: Uber Kinky Set of 4 Waxplay Fetish Candles

UberKinky Wax Play Candle Pack Review

When the opportunity came up to select another product to test and review for Uber Kinky, I almost snatched their arm off when I saw these red and black wax play candles. Kinky, hot and in my own colours, they looked absolutely ideal for my next sexy adventure.

Delivery was fast and discreet, with the candles safely packed and accompanied by a professional invoice.

I had thought that perhaps the UberKinky Wax Play Candle Pack would be packaged in a branded packet, perhaps from the likes of Doc Johnson or Fetish Fantasy. Not the case. These 4 candles (fork handles?) were simply encased within transparent plastic, keeping them together, safe and easy to inspect. I’m all for minimal packaging, and as long as the quality of the contents weren’t compromised by such, I didn’t mind one jot.

Snipping the top of the plastic I peeled it away and disposed of it carefully, leaving me with the four candles (two red, two black) to play with. Each candle measures 7 inches in length and has a circumference of 2.75 inches. The wick measures about 1/2 inch.

What makes waxplay candles different to ordinary candles?

Waxplay candles burn at a lower temperature than ordinary and household candles. This means they burn faster too, so make sure you put something non-flammable down on the bed or floor before you begin.

Household and ordinary candles will most likely leave you with discomfort, if not actual burns to the skin if you use them as you would waxplay candles. Having used these waxplay candles with my partner, I can assure you that the most they achieve is a pleasant and sexy stinging sensation when the wax droplets hit the skin and while they cool to small discs on the flesh. There was no damage to the skin underneath, just a rosy flush. Whether this was from the heat of the wax or from consequential arousal, it’s hard to say!

How do you use waxplay candles?

You light a candle and hold it over your partner’s skin, from the height you prefer. The wax, as it melts, drops on to their skin resulting in a hot sensation where the wax falls. Those pleasured through waxplay love the vulnerable sensation of being under their partner’s control, with them drizzling hot wax on to their (usually) bare body. Combined with bondage it leads to intense mental, emotional as well as physical sensations.

I would advise never dripping wax over a person’s face and take care using waxplay candles over a person’s genitals too. Especially if there is the presence of pubic hair!

The drizzle and droplets of wax will feel much more intense when used over thin skin such as nipples, chest, pubic area/groin, so if new to waxplay or wary in any way, test on a finger pad first to determine the heat factor. You can then work your way up and build confidence, by trying on your back, thighs and other less sensitive regions.

Top Tips

I don’t recommend inserting these candles, but I know people do love the fantasy of having a candle lit and inserted either into the vagina or anus then lit. My tip is to cover the insertable end of the candle with a condom first, if you’re going to try this. As the candle does not have a flare in the length, make sure you keep hold of it if inserting anally.

I really can’t recommend inserting them at all, for safety reasons – but I know quite a few people out there who will anyway, so it makes sense to make it as safe as possible.
